Question

How do I throw my husband an all-boys baby shower?

Share

My husband feels left out of the pregnancy and the events surrounding our baby's birth, so I'd like to throw him a 'baby barbecue' -- sort of like a baby shower for him and the boys. The only problem is I have no idea how to go about it. Please help!

for my sons first baby we threw 2 shower back 2 back the first was the traditional baby shower the second that followed right after was a new daddy party were all of the fellows celebrated the arrival of the new bundle of joy n we paarrtayed! both men n women for those who didnt make the shower were able to make the celebration party.

I'm from the south but we call them " Beer and Diaper" parties for the men. Usually the same day you have your baby shower all of your husbands friends and the husbands of the women you invited get together and bar-b-q and do guy things. If your husband is comfortable with it...bring beer. And a must is to bring diapers...of all shapes and sizes. We did this and actually didnt have to buy diapers after our son was born until he was 8 months old. We had a closet full of diapers from the party.

my husband threw a diaper party for my son-in-law. He went to a pizza place and had pizza, wings and beer for all the men. The men were told to bring a package of diapers from newborn to age 1-2. They got enough diapers to last almost the first 8 months. And he didin't have to clean up the mess. The men had a ball!!

when i had my daughter with the father to be we were not a couple at the time but we wanted to have a big party for our baby to be. So we threw a co-ed party and had drinks for the men and played games that all the men would enjoy not just the girls. My favorite game was as the guest came i got blank white name tags and put names like ''wet diaper'' , ''bottle warmer'', ''broken condom''. it was funny for us i was only 20 at the time. well my little girl is 4 now and im expecting my seconed child.! Time for her to help mommy plan the next party..

My wife is having her baby shower next week and we found out a lot of the women will be driven by guys who want something to do for a couple hours. We talked about it and are going bowling. I am not the type to try to get stuff out of my friends (like requiring them to give me diapers to gain entry to the party) and I don't like sports or hang out with many people who do. Nothing against people who are into either or both. Other ideas we came up with were to barbecue, go play laser tag or paintball, go see an action movie, or have one of those contests where we build an egg protector out of cardboard and whatnot and then throw it off a building.

I had my husband have a guy get together a mile away at a friends house and all the girls came to my house with gifts, the guys just drank beer ate pizza and played instruments and pool then us girls came to crash the boy party when we finished, they were really missing the girls and everyone had a great time!

My bf did not want one bc he was going to be at the one my mom was throwing us! but i wanted to throw him one at hooters! it is free u just pay for the drinks and food! and they set up games and they even give a gift to the dad!
